This is a poll for current owners of the 991.1 GT3 only. Are you going to sell your 991.1 GT3 and buy the new one?

I voted no for a few reasons. First, I am happy with my PDK, so no burning desire to have a manual. Second, the power difference is only 5%, which I can easily make up with headers and a tune. Third, the price difference between selling and buying, when all is said and done would probably pay for 2 top end rebuilds, maybe 3. And lastly, I prefer the styling on the 991.1, although it is not a major factor.

What are you 991.1 GT3 owners doing?

No. I prefer this car as PDK and ordered a GTS in manual. I also cant get over the styling in the front. It looks to me like the new Camry

Well....I jumped to the .2.... My .1 was taken back at MSRP , so basically I drove the car for free for the past few years and I get new warranty. But most importantly , I have a chance to get the options I should of gotten the first time around..

robmypro

Now that is a sweet deal! Doubt I could get that here in Colorado!

^So what color you going with?

JKGT3

Going with GT Silver ......think it will show the black accents well ( wheels , LED lights , mirrors , scoops )

RealityGT

^nice!

Edit: Sorry for the OT. :P

No, because it's practically the same car, so I see no reason for hassle and expense.

Seranad

hahhaah exactly my thinking as well

stilll torn between Rhodium and GT

the slight blue hue in Rh matches well with the red caliper i saw

MaxLTV

Wow, that's definitely a good deal!

Yea I'm switching to the .2 , I moved from the GT3 to the RS and loved both cars but really preferred my original 991 GT3 over the RS. Selling my RS for a healthy profit I'm now looking for a Spyder to buy (not easy!) while I wait for the new GT3 .2 to come in, Euro delivery and all that. I found that with the lower rev limit on the RS I would hit it much more frequently than in the 3 and I just like the less busy appearance on the 3. I think the new one will be a happy medium between the 2 but I think everyone keeping their older generations will not miss out on much

Maybe. I want to upgrade. But when the .2 RS is out I will want that too. That's a problem in Dubai because getting in and out of cars causes you to lose a lot of money even on Porsche Gt models. Not to mention I also want the 580-2 and the 488 speciale when it is out. So it's a tough decision for me as to whether I should upgrade or just wait & see for now. It doesn't help that porsche facelifts are just modest evolutions. To the untrained eye I would be driving the same car I have now but in a different colour. i.e. from red to yellow, maybe Gt silver.

My order is in, PDK, and I have my commission number. I may change color before the pre-production lock up; currently white. For me it is all about the anticipated reliability of the new engine and factory LWB's, that those of us with '14s were not able to get.

I have a '15, which came equipped with LWB seats and the nose lifter. To me, those were the two most important options on the car. I'm fine with the PDK, although I drove manuals virtually my entire life until the PDK was invented. I still enjoy a stick on the street, but a badly broken ankle years ago (skydiving - the ground attacked me!) has always prevented me from doing a proper heel and toe shift. So PDK is perfect for the track.

Since I have the options I want, and would just replicate them in a newer car - is 25 bhp, a little extra torque, and the chance to get a couple of other options worth the price of a new car? Not to me. It's a keeper, at least for the foreseeable future. I got it below MSRP, new in Jan. of 2015, and no matter how much I could sell it for I'd still take a considerable hit on a new one.

So put me in the "keeper" camp.
